"Attack on Titan opening?" Zayn ask as that was your suggestion of a song that should be perform in the first round of the band competition.

"I don't know," Lucas says, "I prefer the song Koi as it's more up beat and fun to play. Not to mention that it's a song that everyone likes," he points out.

"He's right," Lily says as she plays the bass a little but it wasn't loud.

"And as much as I love the anime and the opening, I don't think it would be a good fit," Yasmine says honestly as she was tuning her guitar, "Yoko?" Yasmine, wondering what he thinks but he just shrugs.

"I'm fine with anything, as long as I get to play," he says which made Yasmine giggle.

"Guys, let's let (Name) explain why she suggest this song," Zayn says as he wants to hear your reason. He knows you didn't pick it because you like it because knowing you, you like to do things that benefits the situation.

"Okay, so, um," you try to explaining your reason. It did take courage to suggest a song and an anime opening is not really a song that's much suggested, "I have done some research, watch the videos of the competitions throughout the years but mainly the ones you guys did with and without Anna," you tell them.

"So the past two years?" Lucas ask and you nod.

"With Anna, I admit, she has an amazing voice but it wasn't enough to get first but it was enough to get you guys in second and third place for every round. Even though you guys didn't get to go to the championship, you guys were still good. Without her, you guys fell down and lost members," you remind them.

"As much as I hate to admit it, you're right," Zayn says and you nod as you know you are.

"But another reason why I believe you guys couldn't win first in any rounds or make it is because you guys, like you have mentioned before, picked songs that were freakily chosen by a lot of others. No matter how popular a song it, when you play it over and over, it gets annoying and boring no matter how good it's played," you explain and they nod as you weren't wrong.

"Another reason I believe is because you guys play it exactly the same as the original which there's nothing wrong with but playing a song that many others are going to perform is annoying and people tend to walk out of the room because they don't want to hate their favourite song. But there were cases were you guys avoided that and performed a different song but it didn't catch the audiences attention," you point out.

"That's why choosing a song is hard because we need to assume what others will play, how to avoid it and play something else," Lily says with a sigh as she sets her base an the guitar stand, "And if we do play something that someone else have chosen, we need to play it better so we are remembered by the judges," she adds, "But somehow, when you joined the competitions with your group back in the US,  you somehow got the judges to remember your group," she says as she looks at you and you nod as you couldn't deny it.

"Yes, the reason for it is because sometimes we used original songs but when we used songs from artist, we change it a bit. We don't play it exactly the same but add a few things to make it more fun. If the performers are having fun on stage then the audience will too but choosing songs from artist, my old group and I, we picked song that everyone everyone likes and will sing to," you tell them with a smile.

"Sing to?" Lucas says which made you look around the music room.

"Yes, sing to," you say as you find the microphone. You grab it and make sure it connected so that your voice can be heard. "Example, what's your first reaction to this?" you ask as you stomp your feet on the ground twice and then clap your hands. And then repeat it over and over.
